I had my first goat mountain lion attack. I'm going to build them a hoop house with a door . I'm looking for a winch that lift a pretty large door on a timer. Any suggestion
I want to setup a strand of electric fence on a 6 ft tall chanilink. I want the wire to be above the chain-link. Does anyone know of any insulators that hook on poles that are vertical? I've tried using ones for horizontal but the wire just slips out.

What is the best way to start a turkey flock? I'm looking around for three broad-breasted white turkeys. Could I buy hatching eggs online and put them under a broody hen? How long can the hen take a care of the poults? Where can I get small minimum orders of poults?
I recommend this. I had the same problem as you then switched to this. Amazon.com: LITTLE GIANT Plastic Dome Feeder (60 Lb) Heavy Duty Plastic Gravity Fed Poultry Feed Container Tank (Red) (Item No. DOMEFDR60): Pet Supplies
What a beautiful run. From the sound of it looks like a hormonal issue. Beautifull rooster. I bet by the size of your run and the obsession of having chickens. You will double your flock come spring.
I'll very much try to look into it. Another dilemma I face. Is that I have automatic doors open to let them out in the morning and I put them to sleep in the afternoon. Due to early work.
Would you know of any Turkey size automatic door?
The ducks do. But the turkeys
The ducks have a coop. When I asked the Turkey forum they told me to build a movable roost and let them sleep outside when they are big enough.
That's the only disadvantage of free-ranging. But I have a lot of bushed and as you can see lemon trees. I too have a huge crow population around here.
